Antonio Aiello, aka AIELLO, has risen from humble beginnings to become one of Italy’s most intelligent, multifaceted pop stars. The musical chameleon has slalomed between styles over the course of his career, but started easing towards a modern R&B sound after a formative period spent in Australia. That approach is evidenced in the floor-filling likes of “FINO ALL’ALBA (ti sento)”. It’s also in the more reflective minimalism of “PARADISO”, “IL CIELO DI ROMA” and “C’È UN TEMPO”—all of which pair yearning vocals with understated yet slick beats.
